"The history of our era is the history of stories that failed to be heard."
Rebecca Solnit - Writer and Historian
Distilled
Distilled is a 25-minute short documentary that follows one man’s return to the place he fled as a teenager during the Bosnian War. It’s a story of memory, identity, and the emotional weight of exile.
In a world where migration is reduced to numbers and headlines, Distilled brings us back to the human experience. It invites viewers to feel, reflect, and connect—with one story that speaks for millions.
